    Hey :)

    I'm Okami.

    I just joined.. well, I joined a couple days ago.. just got my approval. ~Lol

    Anyways, my name is after the video game Okami, .. I couldn't come up with anything else. :P

    A little bio of myself..

    I'm a 16yr old girl, I work at a pet supply store, Pet Planet. One of the pet stores that does not sell any animals, and only good, healthy and balanced foods like Innova, Orijen, Acana (etc).Any who.. . my main interests are dogs. I don't have any of my own, because of my age (what good breeder will sell to a 16yr old? :P).. however, I do own two gerbils, a cat named Tiger, and a 4yr old Budgie. I live with my grandmother and her partner, who have two 5yr old Cocker Spaniels (who, unfortunately, were bought from backyard breeders) I hope one day to own a Tibetan Mastiff, thai ridgeback, a border collie or a Pomeranian. However, I'm way more interested in the TMs and the BCs. I looove the indepdent nature of TMs, and love the energy of the border collies. Yet they're on such opposite ends aren't they? ~Lol One is bred to work without humans, the other with.

    Once I turn 18, or perhaps a little bit later.. I'm going to get a pup of either of those two breeds, and then I hope to establish a dog walking business.

     

    I've been a longtime lurker.. I'm looking forward to talking to you all! :o)

     Hi! And Welcome! I'm Amber or Oranges to some. I am owned by 2 cats and 1 dog. Lol. I'm sure you'll make a mum to which ever breed you get. Until then this place is a fountain of information and resourceful people.

     Hi Amber,

    Thanks for the welcome!

     

    And, t'is why I joined.. everyone here is so knowledgable. Plus, I figure if someday in the future I'm going to get a really headstrong breed, whether it be the TM or the Thai Ridgeback, I need all the info I can get my hands on. ~Lol

    welcome to the forum :D i have an interest in Thai dogs as well.

    i nearly died when i finally got to meet one face to face at a dog show last year. bloody amazing dogs!! not very big though..
    i'm used to American Bulldogs ... so most dogs seem small after spending time with my two lol  still would love to SOME DAY have a Thai. they're hard to find in the US.. i only know of two or three breeders plus the one from the dog show.. they were trying to import a stud from Thailand but not having much luck in the matter..
